This is a solo episode, and it's just me talking honestly about the show, the journey, and what podcasting has turned into for me. Over the last couple of years, I've gotten a lot more comfortable doing this. Not because I figured out some secret formula, but because I stopped trying to sound polished and started showing up as myself. This episode is really about authenticity, building real connections, and why I believe the best podcasts feel more like conversations than interviews. I talk about podcast growth, not in terms of downloads or numbers, but in terms of trust, relationships, and consistency. I share why I don't script interviews, why I don't overprepare, and how focusing on people instead of performance has changed everything for me as a podcast host. If you're a podcaster, creator, entrepreneur, or just someone trying to find your voice, there's a lot in here about confidence, curiosity, and letting things unfold naturally. Podcasting has become my home base, a place where leadership, personal growth, and meaningful conversation all come together. I'm incredibly grateful for the guests who've trusted me, the relationships that have grown beyond the mic, and the listeners who've stuck around and supported the show. This episode is really a thank you and a bit of a reflection on where I am and where I think this is headed. If this conversation resonates with you, share it with someone who might get something out of it. That's how Ripples start. Thanks for being here. Let's Ripple!!!

Moving from individual contributor to leader isn't about authority, confidence, or even strategy. It's about alignment — and most leaders underestimate how brutal, complex, and consequential that shift really is.In this episode of The Business of Alignment, AJ breaks down what actually changes when you stop leading yourself and start leading others. Not just direct reports — but energy, trust, decision velocity, partner relationships, board confidence, brand perception, and long-term outcomes you may never immediately see.This is a candid, unfiltered look at leadership reality:• Why one missed conversation can unravel years of trust• How lack of transparency creates hesitation, attrition, and stalled decision-making• What it really means to “peer around the corner” as a leader• Why alignment is not a soft skill — it's a risk management disciplineFor CEOs, CHROs, CFOs, COOs, and senior leaders navigating scale, complexity, and pressure in 2025 and beyond, this episode introduces a practical mental framework to evaluate decisions before they ripple across people, partners, customers, and the business itself.Alignment isn't optional. It's the difference between momentum and quiet chaos.

For episode 231, we welcome Eric van Miltenburg, Senior Vice President of Strategic Initiatives at Ripple.We explore Ripple Impact's mission, unpack their most ambitious initiatives including a $25 million RLUSD commitment projected to generate $1B+ in long-term impact, and look at how blockchain is reshaping philanthropy from one-off donations into sustainable, scalable systems of change.In today's episode you'll learn:

Thank you to our sponsors! Uniswap Mantle Hosts Ram Ahluwalia, Austin Campbell, and Chris Perkins dig into why interest rates may not fall as quickly as markets hope, why oil demand could surprise to the upside, and how retail keeps buying every dip—even while consumer confidence hits new lows. The trio also breaks down the growing collision between TradFi and crypto: whether banks can compete with blockchain-native distribution, how BlackRock's staked ETH ETF filing could reshape the market, and how yields on Ethereum and Solana represent a brand-new financial primitive. Plus, they examine Ripple's controversial raise, Citadel's push to regulate DeFi, and why major incumbents are now in a frantic race to choose their crypto “dance partners.” Hosts: Ram Ahluwalia, CFA, CEO and Founder of Lumida Austin Campbell, NYU Stern professor and founder and managing partner of Zero Knowledge Consulting Christopher Perkins, Managing Partner and President of CoinFund Links: Unchained:  BlackRock Files S-1 for Staked ETH ETF Berachain Kept Secret a $25 Million Refund Right to a Brevan Howard Fund CoinDesk:  Citadel Challenges DeFi Framework in Letter to SEC, Sparking Industry Outrage Bloomberg:  Wall Street Hedged Big Crypto Bet in $500 Million Ripple Deal (XRP) Bitcoin Options Show Traders Hunkering Down for Crypto Winter Timestamps:

This episode of Crypto Town Hall on Exit 10 focuses on major regulatory and institutional shifts in crypto, the real meaning behind headline investments, macroeconomic trends, and the rise of user-friendly DeFi products. The main goal is to unpack recent developments—such as the CFTC accepting Bitcoin, Ethereum, and USDC as derivatives collateral, and the true structure of Ripple's $500 million Wall Street deal—while examining their potential long-term impact on crypto markets, institutions, and end users. Later, a deep dive into EtherFi showcases how DeFi is building alternatives to traditional banking services, aiming for wide, user-friendly adoption.

If you've ever had a moment when life whispered that you were meant for more, but you had no idea how to step into it, this episode is going to hit you right in the soul. What if the beliefs running your life right now weren't true at all? What if the ceiling you think you keep hitting was never supposed to be there? And what if one single moment of clarity could rewrite everything ahead of you? That's exactly the kind of conversation I'm having with Rick Torrison in this episode of The Ripple Effect Podcast. Rick Torrison is a USA Today Best-Selling Author, speaker, and transformational coach who's spent over 25 years helping leaders, entrepreneurs, and high performers move from success to significance. Known as The Limitless Coach, Rick's mission is to help people crush limiting beliefs, clarify their vision, and step boldly into the life they were created to live. He's the creator of the Living Limitless App, a powerful new platform designed to help users renew their mindset, reconnect with purpose, and walk in faith-driven confidence every day. The app features RickBot, Rick's groundbreaking AI coaching clone built to disrupt ChatGPT by delivering more personal, faith-aligned, and human coaching experiences for personal and professional growth. Through his best-selling book Born Limitless, his transformational coaching programs, and his Limitless Life Blueprint framework, Rick equips a generation that's tired of surface-level success and hungry for truth, identity, and meaning. His message is simple yet powerful: you were born limitless—created for influence, impact, and a future filled with hope. We walk through the big questions that tend to show up in every decade of life. Finding your purpose in your 20s. Wondering if you are on the right path in your 30s. Asking if this is really "it" in your 40s. Rethinking legacy and impact in your 50s and 60s. If you are in that space of "there has to be more than this," you are going to love this conversation.

If you've ever built a business that looked successful from the outside but secretly felt misaligned on the inside, this episode will hit home. I'm so grateful to have the incredible Mel McSherry on The Ripple Effect Podcast! We explore Human Design for entrepreneurs and the surprising ways it can eliminate burnout, imposter syndrome, and that nagging feeling that you're doing everything right, yet something still feels off. Mel's story is powerful. Being a business & life guide, Mel McSherry helps inspired yet overwhelmed entrepreneurs honor their lives and become the architects of their own success. Mel uses their spiritual gifts and 15+ years of business-building experience to slash entrepreneurs' stress and bring their success to life! Using both Human Design in partnership with traditional business development tools, Mel coaches others on how they can connect to what they want, understand how they are designed to create what they want, and implement their strengths and strategies, so every day they are profitable–mentally, emotionally, and financially. As an entrepreneur since 2010, Mel has launched two successful businesses, become a 2x published author, spoken almost 200 times all over the US and overseas, and created a true life by design–all while being the primary caregiver to their teenage son with autism. We discuss time and energy management, emotional and energetic profitability, the power of honoring your natural design, and what happens when you stop forcing yourself into strategies that were never meant for you. Are you curious about Human Design? Are you a coach, entrepreneur, or a leader searching for a more authentic and sustainable way to grow your business? If so, I can't wait for you to hear Mel's insights. She brings clarity, humor, honesty, and a level of realness that makes this one of my favorite conversations on The Ripple Effect Podcast.

Get the Experiment Proposal Template mentioned in this episode. Everyone says they want to “experiment” at work—especially now that AI is reshaping how teams operate—but most organizations still treat change like a project plan: analyze, design, roll out, hope for the best. The result? Fake experiments that are over-controlled and over-planned, or chaotic side projects that burn people out and quietly die. In systems this complex, you can't think your way to the right answer, but you can test and learn your way there. In this episode of At Work with The Ready, Rodney Evans and Sam Spurlin dig into what real experimentation looks like inside organizations. They unpack why complexity demands an iterative approach, why so many “tests” are doomed from the start, and what it takes to scaffold experiments with the right authority, resourcing, and constraints. -------------------------------- Ready to change your organization? ⁠⁠⁠Let's talk.⁠⁠⁠ Get our newsletter: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Sign up here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.⁠⁠⁠ Follow us: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ -------------------------------- Mentioned references: Adam Grant's astrology post Previous experimentation episode: BNW Ep. 62 Aaron Dignan Charter management science operating rhythm: BNW Ep. 118 sunk cost Even/Over WIP (work in progress) The Ready's Experiment Proposal Template 00:00 Intro + Check-In: What's a personal experiment you've done recently or are thinking about doing? 03:42 The Pattern: Desire for control and lack of structure stifles real experimentation 06:37 Parallels to R&D for pharmaceuticals 09:37 What's missing in most company experiments 11:35 Example of The Ready's experimentation 17:01 If everything succeeds, they aren't experiments 22:21 Learning and scaling successful experiments is really hard 28:23 Ripple effects of experiments are just as important 30:00 Unstructured experimentation is deeply costly 34:57 Navigating the discomfort during experiments 37:28 Idea #1 - Create intentional space for learning 38:51 Idea #2 - The Ready's Experiment Template 44:35 Idea #3 - No experiments for other people 46:10 Idea #4 - Prepare yourself for disappointment 48:48 Wrap up: leave us a review and share the show with your coworkers!

XRP Adoption EXPLODES worldwide — from the UK to Abu Dhabi to Korea — and the global realignment in crypto is moving FAST. TODAY WE COVER:

Just when you think it’s safe to step back into the courtroom, another week proves otherwise.

John Miles' journey reflects a powerful evolution from traditional corporate and military achievements toward a mission centered on personal meaning and human connection. His early experiences navigating the pressures of leadership roles revealed a critical insight: true fulfillment arises when individuals feel seen, valued, and empowered, not just when they reach external milestones. Recognizing how the epidemic of invisibility and disconnection affects people of all ages, he developed a leadership style that prioritized making both employees and community members feel that they matter—a lesson that has broad relevance in today's fast-paced, often impersonal world. Drawing from personal adversity and vulnerability, John has committed to addressing these challenges at their root, especially in childhood. He understands that a sense of belonging and self-worth needs to be cultivated early, before negative patterns take hold. This conviction drives his latest initiatives for children, including the creation of You Matter, Luma, a vibrant children's book that teaches kids about inherent worth, and the Pass the Ripple app, which turns small acts of kindness into a movement that can be tracked and celebrated. Both projects aim to break cycles of invisibility by giving kids practical tools—and the confidence—to see their own significance and the positive ripples they can create. For parents, educators, and advocates seeking to nurture confidence and well-being in children, John's work is both a guide and an invitation to action.

What if your light never truly fades?In this soulful episode of The Spiritual Cupcake Podcast, Candace shares a tender story about her son choosing a book from a little free library — The Serpent King by Jeff Zentner. On the back, she finds a line that sparks a powerful reflection:“I read somewhere that a lot of the stars we see don't exist anymore. They've already died and it's taken millions of years for their light to reach earth," Dill said.”That wouldn't be a bad way to die," Lydia said. "Giving off light for millions of years after you're gone."This episode explores how, just like starlight, our light continues to travel long after we've left a place — or even this world.
